Fanfare for the Common Man - Copland

In order to make this attractive two-CD compilation set, the BBC has raided the EMI and Virgin Classics back catalogues and put together a selection of pieces which are frequently heard at the Proms, or have some special Proms connection. Falling neatly into the latter category is John Tavener's ecstatic piece for cello and strings The Protecting Veil, which was a BBC Proms commission in 1989, here performed by its dedicatee Steven Isserlis. The collection finishes with a live Last Night recording (including the sound of party-poppers, whistles and sirens) of "Land of Hope and Glory" Wood's Fantasia on British Sea Songs, "Jerusalem" and "Rule, Britannia!" with Bryn Terfel. Before this the collection offers Jacqueline du Pré playing the opening of Elgar's Cello Concerto, Neville Marriner conducting the opening chorus of Bach's Magnificat and the overture to Candide brilliantly played by the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra. Sometimes the programming is a little samey in tone-Carmina Burana followed by Fanfare for the Common Man, for example-but overall this is a fine collection of well-performed excerpts. -Warwick Thompson.

Lest we forget, there was more to the music of the 1980's than disco-powered synth-pop. There were also the ballads, the songs of love packed with emotion as big as the hairstyles. The 80's Love Album is a great introduction to the softer side of the Decade That Taste Forgot. Belinda Carlisle ("Heaven Is A Place On Earth"), Phil Collins ("Against All Odds"), Culture Club ("Do You Really Want To Hurt Me"), Blondie ("Tide Is High"), even Huey Lewis ("Power Of Love")-these are the artists who put the "ball" in "ballad". Slushy, schmaltzy, fun and faintly cheesy, and-best of all-you can even dance to it. -Ted Kord.

What with the Buena Vista Social Club raising the profile of Cuban music beyond belief, there have been literally hundreds of compilations finding their way into the shops. This immodestly titled number has the advantage of containing numerous high-profile artists and some classic songs that include many obvious classics but a few surprise cuts too. Within the mammoth 31-track selection you can expect to find some of the island's most revered musicians, such as the awesome cross-generation collective Afro-Cuban All Stars ("Amor Verdadero"), Son stalwarts Los Van Van ("Esto Te Pone La Cabeza Mala"), renowned vocalist Celia Cruz ("Pachito Eche"), Compay Segundo ("Orgullecida"), Albita Rodriguez ("Ta Bueno Ya") and Trio Matamoros ("Tuveras"). Despite its tacky title, The Best Cuban Album In The World Ever is actually a pretty strong collection of authentic Cuban songs and carries a full range of styles, rhythms and melodies. -Paul Sullivan.
